Prom 2023 plans to be a memorable evening with the city skyline as a beautiful backdrop. Guests can expect light food options, activities, and free photobooth pictures. This will be a Class of 2023 & 2024 exclusive event, meaning that no students from the Class of 2025 or 2026 may attend. Check @juicethejackets & @bhs23niors on Instagram for updates as we approach the prom date.

Prom Policy: In order to attend prom, students should not be involved in conduct that violates education code and school rules from January 1 - March 18. If there is a violation of the education code and school rules you will be excluded from prom. The attendance office sends students who have 30+ unexcused absences a letter home notifying them that they cannot attend Prom.  

You can earn yourself off the prom exclusion list by showing improvement in your attendance.  You will need to complete a 2-week attendance card that you can pick up from the attendance office. You must have no unexcused period absences or CUTs during your 2 week attendance card and it must be completed before March 11th (end of quarter 3). You can attend tutoring with teachers or in the CCC. For each hour of tutorial, you will earn 1 period of credit.  If you can get your unexcused absences count under 30, you will be removed from the Prom Exclusion list. Contact Ms. Tesch cassandratesch at berkeley.net <mailto:cassandratesch at berkeley.net> with any questions.
